Burning Down the House
Manage episode 231551619 series 2284959
This episode was recorded the day Notre Dame caught fire, and Jim and Abby recall their visit the previous summer and the iconic role that landmark building has played in world history. They also discuss Julian Assange, and the role Wikileaks played in burning down the Hillary Clinton campaign, not to mention the Church of Scientology. What is the impact, good or bad, of whistleblowers like Assange, Edward Snowden, and Chelsea Manning play in revealing government secrets? And when you're using your mobile devices, who is more likely to be listening to you - the NSA or Amazon? Also, Abby refuses to discuss the new Star Wars trailer.
